  Sorry for another stupid question...

ALL of the Bosch inline pumps are expected to be lubricated with engine oil! Apparently SOME owners didn't know this (there is of course the suggestion that the maintenance booklet be read). I guess there are people that don't think you need to add or change engine oil too!
